Just keep an eye out on ebay, there are some vendors that sell the refurb drives.

Oh ok. Yeah I already went on eBay and posted some links for a refurb 120 GB drive for 100 with 10 shipping. Do you think there's a large chance of them breaking again or are they pretty sturdy once fixed?

 

Beats me, it doesn't seem like a whole lot can go wrong. It's just a hard drive after all.

Awesome! I CAN FINALLY GET A 360!

I've waited over 18 months for a real price cut. And with the new 60G, I won't have to dish out the extra Franklin for the Elite (and if I ever need the space, I can buy the extra 60 separately).

And my wife has been itching to play Rock Band, and will be buying RB2 soon after.

I believe there are just a bit over 100 of the Fred Meyer stores around , so if they give bulk discounts I'm sure bigger stores are getting them cheaper than us.

@DMeisterJ Most times Fred Meyer puts items on promo first before a price drop to lure the people in who are drawn to the big orange "Sale" signs we use, just an illusion of savings over a flat out price drop to the people who don't keep up on the console prices.

 

I love buying stuff from Fred, not only because they are just down the street from me but also they often put on those nice "orange" tag sale.   They often have 10-20 percent off accessories and that's when I usually stock up on Microsoft points.

They also put a lot of stuff on clearance, I got Rogue Galaxy for about $10.00 and many 360 games.



the guy that took that pictures was standing up ,
i mean not sitting on the chair



Very good pricing. Something which Sony cant get near without losing alot of money. With these prices for holiday season, I see that 360 will sell considerably more than PS3 in america. But it wont do wii numbers. Motion is what sells the wii, not the wii's pricing.

excellent move by microsoft. This could mean that the x360 will at least outsell the ps3 Q3 and Q4 this year
